Somewhere to vent about the great geyser scam. I discovered that my water would stay warm enough if I only put the geyser on for a few hours a day. Thinking I was saving the planet and my cash, I tried this for a couple of weeks - and used more electricity than I have ever done (I'm on a pay as you go system). I think the 'it takes more energy to reheat the water' school is absolutely right. I have yet to explore the temp reduction option. I'm interested to know if others have found the same (sadly, I actually am). Ah – at last. Somewhere to vent about the great geyser scam.

The solution is apparently to rather drop the temperature they geyser keeps the water at. I am not sure what the best temperature is (think it may be around 60 degrees) but that is supposed to be a more effective solution.
